At this time, the thickness of the right center of the side surface and the bottom surface was measured, and the ratio of the thickness of the side surface to the thickness of the bottom surface (lower portion) was used to indicate the ratio of the thickness of the side portion to the thickness of the lower portion.
In the measurement of heat resistance, water at 80 ℃ was added to a food container, and the container was heated in a 1kw microwave oven for 2 minutes and then measured, where O indicates no deformation by visual inspection and X indicates morphological deformation.
When the compressive strength was measured, the bottom surface of the food container was faced backward by a tensile strength tester, and the maximum load when the food container was compressed at a test speed of 50mm/min was measured.
TABLE 5
As can be seen from table 5, the thickness ratio of the side portion/lower portion in examples 8 and 9 was 0.9 or more, that is, the side surface and the bottom surface were similar in thickness, whereas comparative examples 6 and 7 were less than 0.8, and the bottom surface was slightly thicker than the side surface. Further, when heated in a 1kw microwave oven, the samples of example 8 and example 9 were free from morphological changes, and were found to be excellent in heat resistance. Compressive strength of examples 8 and 9Is 15kgf cm/cm2Or more, superior strength compared to the comparative example containing talc.
